Thanks everyone. It's working now.

Apparently I was looking for the wrong option. :)

In MailScanner.conf:

# Should archives which contain any password-protected files be allowed?
# Leaving this set to "no" is a good way of protecting against all the
# protected zip files used by viruses at the moment.
# This can also be the filename of a ruleset.
Allow Password-Protected Archives = no

I guess for your purposes you would want to create a rule for specific
users:

Allow Password-Protected Archives = %rules-dir%/zip.password

zip.password:
To:<tab>user at swatgear.com<tab>no
FromOrTo:<tab>default<tab>yes
